Hatsu-Basho (Jan2010) Ranking

Baruto is ranked Sekiwake East.
I hope he will defeat Yokozuna this tournamnet.
If he does,Ozeki rank wwill be close to hm.

Fomer ozeki Chiyotaikai is ranked Sekiwake West.
If he marks over 10 wins,he will regain Ozeki rank next tournament.

Kakuryu somehow keeps "Sanyaku".

If Komusbi Kotoshogiku keeps last tournament condition,he will be a dark horse for trophy.

Thank you for all Baruto fans reading my blog.

What is your good news for this year?

Economical condition is still bad but I hope you have a nice year end.

Chuchai

Day15 vs Toyonoshimai (Kyusu-Basho 2009 Nov)


Baruto grasped opponent bel by right hand over at the start.
Once Toyonoshima rushed forward but Baruto swang Toyonoshima with uplifting .
Baruto power was mightier than small Toyonoshima......

sekiwake BARUTO ○(TSURIDASHI)× TOYONOSHIMA maegashira#5

This tournament Baruto was lack of impact to sumo fans.

He had not defeated 2 Yokozunas yet.
He unfortunately prove his sumo style was not fixed.
High body start was a bad habit.
Every sumo fans wonder why he lost last tournament's pushing start.

Final score is 9wins 6 losses.

Last septenmber tournament Baruto marked 12wins.
Total wins are 21 wins par 2 tournaments at "SANYAKU"(=over komusubi rank) position.

I think he needs 14 over wins in next January tournament to promote to Ozeki.
Or over 12 wins with Emperor's trophy.

But the point is not only total wins but also the imapct to fans.
Baruto should be a wrestler to frighten Yokozuna and to defeat lower rankers surely.

Anyway We Baruto fans know he will be a Yokozuna someday.
You are the only wrestler we love!
Go Baruto Go!

Sumo video

I have been enjoying Sumo from my younger days.
There were a lot of nice bouts between star wrestlers.

Nihon Sumo Association and NHK(Nihon Hoso Kyokai=Japan Broadcasting Association) have much video contents,I guess ,but it is very difficult for us to watch them now.

I am one of sumo fans and I have been longing to share sumo culture and nice bouts to the world.
Internet comes and I had gotten idea to record bouts and to share among future me and all fans.
But before last tournament ,all my videos uploaded to YouTube were deleted by YouTube team.
So I made some bypass to let video reamain.
And as I expected some videos last and this tournament have been already deleted.

In the case you find no link to YouTube, it means the videos are deleted.
Small ones are still remained.

If you have a good idea, let me know!

Day14 vs Hokutoriki (Kyusu-Basho 2009 Nov)

This is it!
This is sumo style which we want Baruto do!

Baruto grasped opponent belt and mad his head attached to opponent breast and made his body lower.
And finally ,"Hikitsuke"(=pulling opponent belt bilaterally) and "Yorikiri"
Lower body made inevitably his stepping forward movement stable.(="Suriashi")

Stepping should be "Suriashi"(=not like a walking ,like a skating on the ground).
And Yorikiri should be with "Koshi wo waru"(=waist down).

I felt Baruto tried to do so.

Of course,the starting position was still high but I was very happy Baruto tried to pursuit an ideal style of traditional sumo.

Day9 vs Asashoryu (Kyusu-Basho 2009 Nov)

This is Baruto's 8th challenge to Yokozuna Asashoryu.
Until 7th,no win for Baruto.

To promotoe to ozeki for Baruto,To defeat Yokozuna is a must item.

****click to YouTubeHQ

Baruto today showed a low position attack at starting and a quick step forward.
But Baruto could not keep low position and could not push Yokozuna out of ring.
Yokozuna counterattacked with "Maemitsu."
Baruto could not get Yokozuna's belt.
When Baruto tried to grasp belt,
Yokozuna made Baruto unballanced and threw him to ground.

Baruto did not win but he showed us he was improving.

Day8 vs Harumafuji (Kyusu-Basho 2009 Nov)

Harumafuji is not well in this tournament.
His score until yesterday was 3 wins 4 losts.
I think he lost his style to get "Maemitsu" at start.
He does not have a huge body size so ,if he lost his rocket start,
it means ,,,,,you can guess.
****click to YouTube HQ
Baruto pulled up Harumafuji and swang him out of ring.
But ring side judges said "Monoii" and re-judged about Baruto steppe out before Harumafuji feet on the ground.
The conclusion was Baruto's win but I really wonder if he did "Isamiashi".

Day6 vs Kakuryu (Kyusu-Basho 2009 Nov)

We have six grand sumo tournaments in a year.
  • Jan:Hatsu-Basho or Ichigatsu-Basho (Tokyo)
  • March:Haru-Basho or Sangatsu-Basho (Osaka)
  • May:Natsu-Basho or Gogatsu-Basho(Tokyo)
  • July:Nagoya-Basho or Shichigatsu-Basho (Nagoya)
  • Sep:Aki-Basho or Kugatsu-Basho (Tokyo)
  • Nov:Kyushu-Basho or Jyuichigatsu-Basho (Hakata)

Now Kyushu-basho is held at Fukuoka Kokusai Center
The capacity is 7000 seats.

But we can see many vacant seats through my video.

Do you know why?

I think the reason is only two wrestler (Hakuho and Asashoryu) is too strong.
We,sumo fans , want a new hero!

Do you know who will be a new hero?

No doubt it is our BARUTO.

If Baruto shows big scale bout like today, he must be more popular.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

Today's opponent sekiwake Kakuryu is from mongol.
He has not express his sumo style yet and score until yesterday is 2 wins 3 losts.

Day5 vs Goeido (Kyusu-Basho 2009 Nov)

Today's opponet Goeido is a rushing type Komusubi.

  • 2009Jan----×Baruto(YORIKIRI)Goeido○
  • 2009Nov---○Baruto(HATAKIKOMI)Goeido×
Goeido has a high pressure starting and rushing forward skill.
Whenever Baruto defeated Goeido, Goeido lost because of his mistake.


Today's Baruto sumo-ed very well.
He reminded last tournament pushing start style.
His stepping pressure was enough to make Goeido unbalanced.
Only Baurto had to do was to use Goeido counter forward power .
Goeido fell down easily.

Sign of spring!

Kisenosato is ranked Komusubi in this tournament.

Kisenosato is considered as a customer to buy "KURO BOSHI(=lost),,,,,,,,
Past results beetween them are 7win's Baruto and only 1 win's Kisenosato.


What do you think of today's bout?

Baruto won but he started with high waist position,,,,,.
I think Baruto has not found his Sumo style yet.

Kaio's "KOTENAGE" is often called "Kaio Nage".
His Kotenage is different from other wrestlers way.

Day2 vs Kotoshogiku (Kyusu-Basho 2009 Nov)

Kotoshogiku is ranked Maegashira #2 in this tournament.
The results between them in 2009 were ,
  • 2009 sep Baruto ○(yorikiri)× Kotoshogiku
  • 2009july Baruto ○(tsuridashi)×Kotoshogiku
  • 2009may no bout
  • 2009mar Baruto ○(Hatakikomi)×Kotoshogiku
  • 2009jan Baruto ×(Sukuinage)○ Kotoshogiku


I guess Kotoshogiku had planned his strategy carefully.
Kotoshogiku did not allow Baruto to grasp his belt.
Kotoshogiku got inside of Baruto and made use of his big berry to lift Baruto up(="Gaburiyori")

Baruto's start was very dull.
His waist position was very high and stepping forward pressure was loose.

But this defeat comes to Baruto's senses certainly.

Every wrestler is very nervous on a first day of every tournament.

Today's Baruto also fought with full of cares to start this tournament safely.

His waist position and stepping manner was not good.
But first win on first day is best outcome.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Today's opponent sekiwake Kisenosato had a special reason to defeat Baruto.
Because he had scored 7w 7l before today.
If he lost today, he lost sekiwake position.

Baruto also had a special reason to defeat Kisenosato.
Baruto has already a new phase to ozeki promotion.
There's no point in mentioning it.

Baruto vs Kisenosato (YouTube HD is

How wonder Baruto threw Kisenosato out of ring!
All spectaculars in RYOGOKU-KOKUGIKAN raised their voices of surprise.

komusubi BARUTO ○(UWATENAGE)× KISENOSATO sekiwake

12 wins 3 loses.

3 loses were Asashoryu ,Hakuho,Kakuryu.
12 wins are ranked third position in this tournament.

Last tournament 11wins at maegashira #4 and 12 wins at komusubi.
Baruto surely goes up to Sekiwake rank next Kyushu-Basho tournament.

I think there's a posibility to promote to Ozeki
if Baruto gets 13 wins over with trophy in Kyushu-Basho.

Anyway I would like to say Thank you to you Baruto.
You entertained us with fighting!

What is good?

YouTube team imformed me somebody flagged yesterday's videos.
asa vs kotooshu
hakuho vs kotooshu

I guess you can not watch them now.

so i think my new account wnnwkd2 will be deleted near future
as well as old wnnwkd was deleted before this tournament.

Old account had past 7 tournament bouts and my original videos.
They were all gone.

I know my video from TV show is out of promises between YouTube,so it can not be helped.

I think there is no way to share Sumo video and check past bout after tournament now.
Japanese TV and Japan Sumo association do not have system for being googled past bout
when you want to find past bouts.

I select three ways Ustream,YouTube,Blogger video from this tournament.
Ustream and Blogger video embedded on my blog are low quality
but work as a bypass,I hope.

I want to emphasize you to download and stock HD videos
from YouTube by yourselves if you want to watch again.

Thank you.

Day14 vs Kakuryu (Kugatsu-Basho 2009 Sep)

Kakuryu is ranked Maegashira #3.
He is from Mongol , 24 years old and his stable (="Heya") Izutsu.
He has already marked 9 wins with defeating 2 ozeki.

BARUTO VS KAKURYU (Click to YouTube HD ver.)

Baruto chose the starting attempting to grab belt and he got his way he wanted.
Baruto thought he got enough position to pull up Kakuryu.
But it looked a tittle bit forcible because Baruto's waist position was high.
Baruto should pull up with making his waist position lower not to be re-attacked.
Kakuryu used outside leg trip and Baurto lost his balance completely.
Kakuryu caught Baruto's off guard.
Overconfidence is our greatest enemy.
Please keep in mind,Baruto.

komusubi BARUTO ×(SOTOGAKE)○ KAKURYU maegashira #3

11wins 3 loses.

Sekiwake Kotoshogiku got 8 over loses today .
It means one sekiwake position will be vacant.
So it is absolutely certain Baruto will be sekiwake next tournament.

Tomorrow is final day (="SENSHURAKU)

The meaning of one win between 11 wins and 12 wins are big.
As I wrote before,total wins through 3 tournaments at "SANYAKU"(=upper than Komusubi)
is a point of promoting Ozeki.

Baruto ans Tokitenku have had bout once and Baruto defeated at that time.
Tokitenku is noticed as a technician.

BARUTO vs TOKITENKU (Click to YouTube HD)

Baruto pushed and rushed.
Tokitenku tried to change his body and "Hatakikomi"
But Baruto today coould chase Tokitenku's body movement well.
Finally Baruto pulled opponent and "Hatakikomi" was completed.

Baruto still keep 2 loses and he bouted really well today.
He seems to be relaxed.

Some readers know my last YouTube account has been deleted.
And all my videos was gone.
So I still feel my new account also being deleted.
I recommend you all video you want to stock should be downloaded by yourself.

My wish is to widen Sumo world and Baruto's bout to the world.

And I have to say thank you some readers had commented me to cheer
when I lost myself after my account was deleted.

If I gave up to continue this blog,I could not share Baruto's bout in this tournament.

Thank You!

Let's think about OZEKI PROMOTION

To answer to one my blog reader asked ,,,which case can Baruto promote to ozeki.

Let's make it clear through past history to promote ozeki after 2000

(success case)
2000 sep kaio
komusibi8w7l→komusubi14w1l(torphy)→sekiwake11w4l total33w12l
2002jan tochiazuma
sekiwake10w5l→sekiwake12w3l(second)→sekiwake12w3l(second) total34w11l
2002sep asashoryu
sekiwake11w4l→sekiwake11w4l(second)→sekiwake12w3l(second) total 34w11l
2006jan kotooshu
komusubi12w3i(second)→sekiwake13w2l(first)→sekiwake11w4l(second) total36w9l
2006may hakuho
komusubi9w6l→sekiwake13w2l(second)→sekiwake13w2l(first) total35w10l
2007sep kotomistuki
sekiwake10w5l→sekiwake12w3l(second)→sekiwake13w2l(second) total35w10l
2009jan harumafuji
sekiwake10w5l→sekiwake12w3l(second)→sekiwake1w2l(first) total35w10l

second means records second wins
first means records same as tournament winner but defeated at play-off
trophy means wins tournament

(failure case)
2002 mar kotomitsuki maegashira#2 13w2l(trophy)→sekiwake9w6l→sekiwake12w3l total34w11l

Japan Sumo Association does not tell officially in which case filled with to be able to promote to ozeki.

If we learn psat cases,
Ozeki candidate needs
  • over 33 wins including at least tropy once in past 3 tournanaments.
  • or over 34 wins including 2 times upper than second positions in past 3 tournaments.
  • or over 35 wins is enough
  • but in any cases above mentioned,staying at upper than "SANYAKU" is favorable.

It is too early to discuss Baruto 's ozeki promotion.....if we learn history
but WE BARUTO MANIA has to think about it all the time!!! Right?

Day11 vs Kotooshu (Kugatsu-Basho 2009 Sep)

After day10,Kotooshu and our Baruto marked 8 wins 2 loses.

Kotooshu's 2 loses were maegashira ranker Kakuryu and ozeki Kaio.
Baruo's 2 loses were yokozuna Asashoryu and Hakuho.

These facts leads to Baruto win,,,,,,.
But past one year results were Baruto's 2 wins 4 loses.
When baruto won,Kotooshu had a severe knee disability.
So 2 wins means nothing, I think.

When Baruto lost 4 ,his start style were 2 pushing(="Tuppari" or "Tsuki-oshi")
and 2 belt grabbing (="Yotsu).

What style do you choose in your start,Baruto?!

BARUTO vs KOTOOSHU ( You want to see YouTubeHD? YES)

Oh! Baruto chose tricky style!
When Baruto won by this kind of pulling submission in the past, he always shook his head.
I guessed his master had taught "no pulling" if you want to be upper rank"...something like that.

But today Baruto NEVER shook his head.

Do you know why?
I guess Baruto enjoys himself in this tournament.
Baruto = relaxed
Kotooshu=high pressured

Baruto read Kotooshu's mind on the ring.
So Baruto chose this start with full confident .
No regret No head shaking.

I agree,Baruto!

komusubi BARUTO ○(HATAKIKOMI)× KOTOOSHU ozeki


Tomorrow Baruto will fight against Kotomitsuki.

Take it easy!
